My Training Journal

[SaiBoT]

10 minutes to stretch them out not one stretch lasting 10 minutes.
When I say back off from deads I really mean it, you won't loose strength by doing this, you will gain more. As long as you keep squatting! The RDL I mean it from the floor, no platform!

About that routine, that looks good for someone who does some serious juice, not for you! I wouldn't do it, never did, never will!

OK so just scrap what he said? he was big and said in a month and a half gained a stone doing a certain routine like that. But yeh I see your point, especially 5 days straight trainin legs. Seen as Iv been doin relativly low rep work lately, before I start the new routine in 2009 should I do a week or two of higher reps training? Or jus not bother?

High rep would be somthin like
Squats 8 reps
Bench 15 reps
Deads 6 reps
BB Rows 10-12 reps
Dips 9 reps
Pulldowns 15 reps
Abs 20 reps
Calfs 60 reps
Military 10-12 reps

Or would their be no point? More than 15 reps and I get bored lol...

To me high rep is 12 or more. Yeah you can do it, no harm in it.

Allright I might do somthin like that, Should I keep doin my last 2 sets of bench high rep like I have been doing?
